"I do not normally respond to a Vent I read. I usually just forman opinion and let it go. But I have to differ with the Venter lastweek (8/31) regarding Pat Tillman. The only ones that called PatTillman a hero were the politicians who were covering their butts(and kissing up) and the news bureau pundits who had a 'storyline.'Then, of course, all of the believers who listened to those idiots.If one really knew the story (try watching 'The Pat TillmanStory'), none of Pat's family regarded him as a hero. He was a highprofile individual who decided he wanted to serve his country,period. He was married, so he indeed did leave his wife behind. Sothat blows mention of that right there. I went to Nam, and havebeen called a hero. That is/was ludicrous. A hero throws himself ona grenade to protect fellow warriors. A hero is one who attacks anenemy position on his own to help save/protect his fellow warriors.Pat Tillman was not a hero, even his family states that in thedocumentary. But he was a true warrior and a patriotic Americancitizen. You, Venter, should write an apology to all of those youoffended with your anal and close-minded dialogue."
"Please urge everyone you know to support the proposedCanada-U.S. pipeline. It will create less dependence on importingoil from the Middle East while creating many badly needed jobs inthe U.S. as 80 percent of the pipeline would be in the good ol'U.S.A. Don't be fooled by the environmentalists because if thepipeline is not built down to gulf coast it will be built toCanada's west coast with the oil shipped to China for refiningwhile we continue to ship in oil from the OPEC countries. None ofthat helps the environment and does nothing but hurt the Americaneconomy.
